Building The Page:
- Position island into place and sew onto page, stuff with Fiberfil before closing completely.
- Position Palm Tree into place and sew onto page.
- Sew wave onto the bottom of the boat – sew only the two bottom rows together.
- Sew the three windows onto the boat.
- Position Boat into place and sew onto page – DO NOT SEW TOP PART!!
- Insert the bottom part of flagpole into the boat about 2 cm – sew only one side of pole onto page – it should be able to move side to side.
- Using photo as guide sew red flag onto page – DO NOT SEW FLAG ONTO POLE
(this will cause the pole not to move anymore) Flag should be able to flap up and down 🙂 - Using some white yarn and the yarn needle, outline a skull face with short stitches and then fill up with long stitches.
- Using photo as guide, add some cross bones.
- Sew flag onto pole – use photo as guide.
- Flag should move with pole side to side.
